Fashion Doll Maxi Skirt Tandem

While figuring out how to work ‘peacefully’ with Will & Grace I came up with another set of crocheted doll clothes for the Barbie/fashion doll type in the mean time 🙂

Inspired by this beautiful number –

– the doll skirt is crocheted around an elastic band (for the waist) and is just a rectangle of single crochet stitches done up to the desired length. I then finished that up with a (ch 3, skip 1 sc, sc in next sc) repeat up to desired length.

The blouse is a modified version of this beautiful pattern I found here.

I also got to playing around with some cute buttons which I sewed on as accent pieces on one side of the skirt.  (P.S.  Realized sewing is another activity I have to make peace with!) 😀

I was thinking about taking on a monthly crochet challenge and maybe this could be it – one fashion doll outfit per month. It’s small enough to complete within a reasonable amount of time but also challenging enough for me to flex my creativity (and resourcefulness).  Hmmmm …. 🙂 🙄
